About Me and this Blog

I’m Andrew Towton; author, miniature hobbyist and history nut from (occasionally) sunny British Columbia. For years it has been a goal of mine to finally stop scribbling and set my sights higher; becoming a published author. In pursuit of that, I have decided to start this blog in the hopes that my work piques your interest.

To that end, this blog will host short stories, in addition to any announcements on upcoming projects. While in between major announcements, this blog will also host a number of posts in regards to my current hobby projects.

Other than that, please keep comments civil and criticism constructive, if you would be so kind. Please enjoy!

Ashes of the Cinderbark

“From the ashes of the old kingdoms Duchies rise and fall. Rendsheim, the city of embers and charcoal, stands among the last great wonders of the world. Kilns burn day and night to feed the furnaces of the continent, devouring forests and blotting out the sun. Yet for all it’s might, the city faces dire threats. The interplay of Dukes has set the stage for war, a war that has snatched a young carpenter from his meagre life. Now Ivo, an unwilling conscript, must follow the will of a mad Duke, facing death by blade and other, older evils. All the while, Rudolph, Lord of the Ember, must play a dangerous game in search of a mind bending narcotic from the depths of time, lest he expire in a burst of flame.”
